Black
Online Dating

African-American dating
is a category of dating that has always had either specialized sections
devoted to it at general dating sites, or specialist sites catering solely
to Black people. For example see the links to the right which go to the
service we recommend.

If you only want to
meet Black people for online dating then one of these sites should suite
you. There are some, however, who do not want to confine themselves to
Black dating and for them it may be that interracial dating is the answer.

When I first got into
online dating back in the 1990s I came across these specialized Black
online dating sites and they set me thinking. Was there anything racist
about them?

At first I had no
answer. These sites were restricting themselves, in effect, to a single
race -- if there is such a thing as a Black race; the idea is unscientific
at best. Leaving that aside, wasn't a site that only allowed one color
discriminatory in some way?

On thinking about
it more carefully I realized that it was not so. If individual people
choose to only date people who are Black then that is their choice, of
course. The Black dating sites are not being discriminatory because they
are catering to what might be described as a 'lifestyle choice', no one
is forcing any discrimination upon anyone else.

That is the crucial
factor I feel, whether these choices are being made freely or not. If
they are being made freely then there is no case to answer.
